UBER ALLES IN DER WELT

Here we go ... the twin heroes that led a landslide win for Germany, scoring 2 goals each. It is amazing, unthinkable in fact when Muller on the left scored 2 goals within 2 minutes in the first half. Brazil may find excuses in the fact that they lost a key striker to major back injury, and their Captain to a Yellow Card penalty but let us face it ... Germany played a text book game through and through, with a defense net that did not allow the slightest breathing space for Brazil. They won hands down with no ifs and buts, hands down.

The German National Anthem may carry the same notes but I understand the lyrics are different now, as the original words are just not sung anymore. To many, 'Deutschland Deutschland uber alles , uber alles in der welt' does bring back the chilly days of Nazism and the Third Reich atrocities but, today, on July 9th 2014 we must admit that Germany is indeed 'over and above everything in the world'.

Well done, really well done!
